When edible oils are idle and stored for a long amount of time, they undergo oxidation due to the exposure to oxygen. This oxidation causes rancidity in oils.

It is difficult to extinguish a fire on a crude oil tanker, because each liter of crude oil releases 2.80 × 10 7 J 2.80×107 J of
Alborosie

Answer:

The question is incorrect and incomplete. Here's the correct question:

It is difficult to extinguish a fire on a crude oil tanker, because each liter of crude oil releases 2.80 × 10 7 J  of energy when burned. To illustrate this difficulty,a) calculate the number of liters of water that must be expended to absorb the energy released by burning 1.00 L  of crude oil, if the water has its temperature raised from 23.5 °C to 100 °C , it boils, and the resulting steam is raised to 315 °C. b)Discuss additional complications caused by the fact that crude oil has less density than water.

Explanation:

Q= mc ΔT

Q= heat energy

m is mass

ΔT is change in temperature and c is specific heat capacity

calculating heat for latent heat of vaporisation

Q= ml where l is latent heat of vaporisation

a) Total heat energy used= heat required to raise temperature from 23.5 °C to 100 °C, heat required to boil water and heat required to further raise temperature from 100 °C to 315°C

Q = mc ΔT₁ + mL + mc ΔT₂

Q = m(c ΔT₁ + L + c ΔT₂)

m= Q÷(c ΔT₁ + L + c ΔT₂)

Q= 2.8 X 10⁷ J

c=4186J/kg°C

L=2256 x 10³J/kg

ΔT₁=76.5°C(100°C-23.5°C)

ΔT₂= 215°C(315°C-100°C)

(c ΔT₁ + L + c ΔT₂)= 4186J/kg°C *76.5°C + 2256 x 10³J/kg + 4186J/kg°C*215°C =3476219J/Kg

m= 2.8 x 10⁷J ÷3476219J/Kg

m =80.54 Kg

volume = mass÷ density

=80.54kg ÷ 10³kg/m³( density of water)

=0.0854m³

0.001m³ = 1 lL0.08054m³= 0.08054m³ /0.001m³= 80.54L

VOLUME is 80.54litres

b) since the density of crude is less than the density of water,and 80L of additional water is added, it'll make the crude to float on water thus inhibiting the extinguishing process

Tear off a small, flat sheet of waxed paper. Use the pipette to dispense a drop of water on the waxed paper. Now, dry the pipett
Vilka [71]

Answer:

Explanation:

When comparing the drops of oil and water, one thing I noticed was the shape. The water drop was more defined, whereas the drop of oil began to spread and was much flatter. This may be due to the waxy material, and how both oil and water react to the wax.

Select all that identify a covalent bond.
saw5 [17]

Heres the best help i can give you There is a couple different ways to determine if a bond is ionic or covalent. By definition, an ionic bond is between a metal and a nonmetal, and a covalent bond is between 2 nonmetals. So you usually just look at the periodic table and determine whether your compound is made of a metal/nonmetal or is just 2 nonmetals

What is an electron configuration?
Ulleksa [173]

In atomic physics and quantum chemistry, the electron configuration is the distribution of electrons of an atom or molecule (or other physical structure) in atomic or molecular orbitals. For example, the electron configuration of the neon atom is 1s² 2s² 2p⁶, using the notation explained below.
